Litigator Tracey Turnbull, partner-in-charge of Porter Wright's Cleveland office, has been elected as a national director to the DRI Board of Directors. DRI is the leading organization of defense attorneys and in-house counsel across the globe. DRI's national elections were held during its annual meeting in Boston last week. Turnbull will serve a three-year term as one of 12 national directors on DRI's Board of Directors.

“Tracey inspires us with her exemplary work for and dedication to DRI,” shared Jim Curphey, chair of Porter Wright’s Litigation Department. “We are proud of her election to this prestigious position as she continues our firm’s longstanding legacy of leadership and service with DRI.”

An active member of the organization, Turnbull recently completed her two-year term as chair of the Commercial Litigation Committee and has held numerous other leadership roles on several DRI committees. At last week’s annual meeting, Turnbull was honored with the 2021 DRI Davis Carr Award.
